Description
Here's a detailed description of the comic:
Panel 1: A man is struggling to push a large boulder up a steep hill. He is wearing a toga and appears focused on his task. The background is a bright blue sky.
Panel 2: A close-up of the man's face, showing surprise and relief. He has a beard and looks animated. The text reads: "HOLY CRAP! USUALLY IT ROLLS RIGHT BACK DOWN AND I HAVE TO START OVER! BUT THIS TIME IT DIDN'T!"
Panel 3: The man looks reflective, pondering his situation. He says, "HUH. SO WHAT DO I DO WITH MY LIFE? I GUESS I SHOULD GET A JOB."
Panel 4: The scene shifts to an office environment. The man is sitting across from a desk, speaking to a clearly annoyed figure in glasses. The hired figure's dialogue states: "YOU'LL HAVE TO START OUT AT THE BOTTOM."
Panel 5: The man is sitting in the office, looking frustrated. The office has a simple decor with a plant in the background.
Panel 6: The final panel shows a woman speaking to a man with long hair and a beard, identified as Zeus. The woman says, "YOU’RE SUCH A DICK, ZEUS." They are surrounded by clouds, hinting at a divine setting.
This comic humorously illustrates themes of struggle, job searching, and the challenges of life beyond a singular pursuit.
